EmperorWangDong Posted November 27, 2020 Share #1 Posted November 27, 2020 I tried to inform the seller you can clearly see a 1970s date on the pommel, but he knows best according to his revised description. https://www.ebay.com/itm/WWII-Era-Fighting-Knife-in-Sheath/224217676223?hash=item34346a39bf:g:~VQAAOSwckFfwFgw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKIP I just noticed he changed it to VN era. Maybe a few others contacted him as well to give him a heads up. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thorin6 Posted November 27, 2020 Share #8 Posted November 27, 2020 This isn't the first time, and won't be the last, that this knife is listed as WW2. More often it's the pre-1967 knives that are mis-identified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKIPH Posted November 29, 2020 Share #10 Posted November 29, 2020 If I'm not mistaken, that is a Japanese or foreign copy. SKIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
